Fixing APEX Static File Version Error After Upgrade

After upgrading Oracle APEX, the following error appeared:

There is a problem with your environment because the Oracle APEX files are not up-to-date! The files for version 18.2.0.00.12 have been loaded, but 24.2.0 is expected. Please verify that you have copied the images directory to your application server as instructed in the Installation Guide.

This error occurred because the environment was still using outdated static files from an older APEX version. After upgrading to version 24.2, the application expected the corresponding static resources.

How to fix it?
